Polyvinyl Chloride Emulsion 1202 (PVC)

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) a white powder synthetic resin made from the polymerization of vinyl chloride. It is a major thermoplastic and is the world's third-most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer. The robustness or durability of PVC plastics can be changed by the types of additives mixed during the processing. LG PB1202 is a paste grade PVC homopolymer suitable for low viscosity plastisol processing. It has the advantages of low viscosity, good storage stability of plastisols and high filler acceptance and is used for artificial leather compact layer, artificial leather foam layer and flooring foam layer.

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC or Vinyl) is a high strength thermoplastic material widely used in applications, such as pipes, health care and medical devices, electrical cables, wire and cable insulation, automobile and other sectors, household products, clothing, flooring and construction.

There are two popular methods for the manufacture of PVC through the addition polymerization process:

Suspension PVC (S-PVC) and Bulk or Emulsion PVC (E-PVC)

Emulsion PVC (E-PVC)

Emulsion PVC is also known as Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) paste resin. Emulsion PVC is a fine particle size PVC which is produced by fast polymerization rate. In the emulsion process, PVC powder is mixed with plasticizers to produce a paste/resin, which is then used for coating.

Emulsion PVC is generally characterized by a relatively high impurity content, higher molecular mass distribution, and water absorption rate.

Emulsion PVC require much more energy for production and is considerably expensive as compared to suspension resin. PVC Emulsion Resin carries the emulsifying chemicals that act as a catalyst for various methods.

Emulsion PVC Resin is compact in structure, and does not absorb much plasticizer at room temperatures. Emulsion PVC is widely applicable for coating applications such as, rotational molding, coatings, dipping, and among others. Moreover, it is widely used for Vinyl floorings of wide widths.

On the basis of end-use industry, the global Emulsion PVC market can be segmented as Construction, Automotive and Healthcare.

PVC based Emulsion is widely used in the manufacturing different consumer products due to its cheaper price and water-resistant property. Furthermore, growing demand for synthetic leather for various end-use industries such as automotive, textile also leads in escalating the demand for emulsion PVC.

On the basis of application, the global Emulsion PVC market can be segmented as Wall Covering, Toys, Gloves, Synthetic leather, Electrical Cables, Sports Equipment, Stationery, etc.

Storage:

Emulsion Polyvinyl Chloride is packed in paper bags filled using a filling valve.

Emulsion Polyvinyl Chloride should be stored dry and away from sources of heat and sunlight. Pastes should also be stored dry and at moderate temperature (under 38 °C and as near to 24 °C as possible), to avoid unfavorable effects on processability.
